Bobo^® Panicle Hydrangea Hydrangea paniculata

Don't give up on Bobo. Just some background - I have a couple dozen hydrangeas including Limelight, Quick Fire Pinky Winky, Endless Summer, Twist 'n Shout and some other newer that I can't remember the names. Bobo is slow and I waited until about the third year to see any major growth and flowering. You cannot compare it's growth rate and flowering to some of the more prolific bloomers. You also cannot overwater or fertilize must especially after the plant is established.

We have clay soils and this Bobo plant constantly shows signs of chlorosis. My other hydrangeas (pinky winky, quick fire, endless summer) are fine. The leaves are already turning yellow with green veins and they haven't even bloomed yet. What should I do?

I planted this for the first time this year - in Zone 5A. We have had a hot summer and so I have been watering this Bobo by sprinkler (I know, not ideal) overhead every day around 20 min. It receives morning shade and mostly afternoon sun. It is starting to show yellow leaves that keep falling, suggesting I am watering it too much. However, the flowers also show signs of sun-scorch (brown spots) so it has been very difficult to adjust watering time appropriately. I don't know if it is lacking iron, but I fertilized it early on when I had first planted it (May). Seems to be a fussy plant this year or maybe I am doing too many things wrong.

I worked with a professional landscaper to design and install a complete landscape plan for our home in the mountains of North Georgia. I selected BOBO Hydrangea to line the foundation of our home facing the roadway. I wanted a hydrangea that would remain upright and standout against our dark brown and stone mountain design home. Fifteen BOBOs grace the front of our home. These stunning shrubs are loaded with magnificent white blooms and are more beautiful than we anticipated. We view them from the roadside and from the decks above the bed in which they are planted. They are beautiful from every angle. We have neighbors and friends calling to ask us what they are and where we purchased them. We are very pleased with them. We are considering other areas in our landscape that would be enhanced by their gorgeous blooms.

Beautiful shrub I have it growing in my front flower bed where I needed a small hydrangea. It goes great with my cottage garden theme! Get it you will be satisfied!
